If you'd like to be more involved with your child in this then have a look at the ideas below!
- Show your child different coins and currency that you might have with you. What do the different colours mean?
- Let your child hand money to a cashier and talk about the change you get back.
-Look at food receipts with your child and figure out how much everything cost.
-Practice using 'niceties' when shopping such as saying, please, thank you and excuse me to retail staff.
On Monday we set up Room 16 as a supermarket and labelled all of our items depending on how much value the children felt they had. We had some interesting ideas! My favourite was certainly that our classroom television cost only 6 dollars.
We dressed up as shop keepers and customers then shopped around for items in the classroom. We had to make sure we had to right amount of money, and that we were responsible and looked after it carefully!
